Several questions like this one asked for my opinion, followed by rows of blank lines for writing my answer; that was odd. Since when did a standardized test care about anyone’s opinion?
Other questions reminded me of problems I’d encountered as an adult-having to decipher the fine print of a health-care policy before choosing it, or comparing the fees of checking accounts offered by competing banks. It seemed more like a test of life skills than school skills.
All the math formulas were provided, thank God, including the value of pi. But I noticed that I had to really think about my answers. When I tried to speed though a math section, I had to go back and erase several answers.
